The 5th Annual Home Buying Fair will be on Saturday, May 14th, 2016, at the Ventura Beach Marriott from 10am – 3pm.

We’ve been helping local Santa Barbara and Ventura families become home owners for nearly 30 years. This annual fair will be packed with home buying information – perfect for anyone thinking about purchasing a home.

We encourage attendees to come ready with questions as they will be able to speak directly with local real estate experts and potential members of the home buying team including local real estate agents, lenders, residential developers, and financial advisors.

The fair will offer mini-seminars on topics such as local real estate market conditions, steps of the home-buying process, low down payment loans, improving your credit score, and more.

The fair is open to the public. Admission is free for employees of Coastal Housing Partnership Member Employers or $5 per adult.

Mark your calendar for Coastal Housing Partnership’s fifth annual Your Path to Home Ownership Home Buying Fair!

Saturday, May 14, 2016 at Ventura Beach Marriott.

The Fair is an opportunity to meet with real estate professionals and to learn more about the home buying process.

Let us help you on your path to homeownership, whether you are a first time home buyer, move-up buyer or getting back into the real estate market.

It was wonderful seeing all the home buyers last Saturday at the Fess Parker for our annual Home Buying Fair!

Coastal Housing Partnership’s 4th Annual Home Buying Fair was a success. The turnout of interested local homebuyers included first-time home buyers, ‘move-up’ buyers, those refinancing and those seeking financial and other services to help them prepare to be the strongest buyers possible. We cannot thank our sponsors, educational seminar speakers and exhibitors enough for their participation!

Owning a home is a major part of living the American Dream, but for many Santa Barbara and Ventura County residents, that dream does not seem possible. We know that home ownership in Santa Barbara and surrounding communities is possible and that is why we are hosting our 4th Annual Home Buying Fair this Saturday, May 9th at Fess Parker’s Doubletree Resort in Santa Barbara.

Since our inception in 1987, Coastal Housing Partnership helped over 10,000 people become homeowners by connecting the employees of Central Coast employers with:

• Home buying benefits
• Home buying education seminars
• Resources as employees navigate their way through the home buying process
• Mortgage refinance benefits
• Rental assistance benefits
• A network of service professionals to assist employees in their search for area housing, whether leasing or buying

Our resources are accessible to Coastal Housing Partnership Employee Members, but our Home Buying Fair on May 9th is open to the public to give attendees the opportunity to find out more about the home buying process, the real estate market, and to meet local real estate professionals.

Whether you’re just beginning to think about buying a home or ready to take the plunge, our upcoming event something for everyone.

The Santa Barbara News-Press recently wrote about Coastal Housing Partnership profiling three home buying success stories in a news piece by Andrea Cambern called “The Houseaholic.” In the article, you can read about Santa Barbara and Ventura families who were able to buy homes thanks to our resources. One of the success stories profiled in the News-Press article attended the Santa Barbara Home Buying Fair two years in a row. She said: “The resources of CHP helped us get started and kept me thinking this could really happen.”

Attendees can meet one on one with real estate agents, lenders, credit and
financial advisors and home builders in a relaxed — no pressure — environment. In addition, free seminars will be presented throughout the day on local market conditions and the home buying process.
